COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION A fantastic Christmas beer, but one that defies the universal custom of a stronger, spicier beer for the holiday season. At 7% alcohol by volume, this one is relatively lighter in alcohol than the Guldenberg, and does not pack the hop punch of the XX. It combines some of the best elements of those other two beers with a fine balance of malt and hops, complex character, a refreshing dryness, and a gorgeous cellar aroma but is distinguished by its festive copper color. The 1999 Père Noël was a bit of a departure, with a very appealing yeasty tartness that was not readily discernible in earlier years.

Google's Risky Business
Read the Original Article at InformationWeek
Google I/O 2012, the company's annual developer conference, offered a glimpse of the company's future and a reminder of the company's problems. None of Google's peers, allies, or competitors--Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Mozilla, or Samsung--have a vision for technology that is quite as ambitious or socially transformative. And neither do they strive to realize their respective visions in such an incautious way.
As Google continues its mission to organize the world's information, it's reorganizing the social, technical, and commercial landscape in the process.
New apps promise to inject social features across entire workflows, raising new problems for IT. In the new, all-digital Social Networking issue of InformationWeek, find out how companies are making social networking part of the way their employees work.

Building construction and operations can have extensive direct and indirect impacts on the environment, society, and economy, which are commonly referred to as the 3 P's ('People', 'Planet', 'Pocketbook'). The field of sustainable design seeks to balance the needs of these areas by using an integrated approach to create win-win-win design solutions.
The main objectives of sustainable design are to reduce, or completely avoid, depletion of critical resources like energy, water, and raw materials; prevent environmental degradation caused by facilities and infrastructure throughout their life cycle; and create built environments that are livable, comfortable, safe, and productive.
Buildings use resources (energy, water, raw materials, and etc.), generate waste (occupant, construction and demolition), and emit potentially harmful atmospheric emissions. Building owners, designers, and builders face a unique challenge to meet demands for new and renovated facilities that are accessible, secure, healthy, and productive while minimizing their impact on society, the environment, and the economy. Ideally, building designs should result in net positive benefits to all three areas.
In addition to including sustainable design concepts in new construction, sustainable design advocates commonly encourage retrofitting existing buildings rather than building anew. Retrofitting an existing building can often be more cost-effective than building a new facility. Designing major renovations and retrofits for existing buildings to include sustainable design attributes reduces operation costs and environmental impacts, and can increase building resiliency. The embodied energy of the existing building, a term expressing the cost of resources in both human labor and materials consumed during the building's construction and use, are squandered when the building is allowed to decay or be demolished.
Source: EPA, 2004
While the definition of sustainable building design is constantly changing, six fundamental principles persist.
Optimize Site Potential
Creating sustainable buildings starts with proper site selection, including consideration of the reuse or rehabilitation of existing buildings. The location, orientation, and landscaping of a building affect local ecosystems, transportation methods, and energy use. It is important to incorporate smart growth principles into the project development process, whether the project is a single building, campus, or military base. Siting for physical security is a critical issue in optimizing site design, including locations of access roads, parking, vehicle barriers, and perimeter lighting. Whether designing a new building or retrofitting an existing building, site design must integrate with sustainable design to achieve a successful project. The site of a sustainable building should reduce, control, and/or treat storm water runoff. If possible, strive to support native flora and fauna of the region in the landscape design.Optimize Energy Use
With continually increasing demand on the world's fossil fuel resources, concerns for energy independence and security are increasing, and the impacts of global climate change are becoming more evident, it is essential to find ways to reduce energy load, increase efficiency, and maximize the use of renewable energy sources in federal facilities. Improving the energy performance of existing buildings is important to increasing our energy independence. Government and private sector organizations are increasingly committing to building and operating net zero energy buildings as a way to significantly reduce our dependence on fossil fuel-derived energy.Protect and Conserve Water
In many parts of the country, fresh water is an increasingly scarce resource. A sustainable building should use water efficiently, and reuse or recycle water for on-site use, when feasible. The effort to bring drinkable water to our household faucets consumes enormous energy resources in pumping, transport, and treatment. Often potentially toxic chemicals are used to make water potable. The environmental and financial costs of sewage treatment are significant.Optimize Building Space and Material Use
The world population continues to grow (to over 9 billion by 2050), natural resource use continues to increase, and the demand for additional goods and services stresses available resources. It is critical to achieve an integrated and intelligent use of materials that maximizes their value, prevents upstream pollution, and conserves resources. A sustainable building is designed and operated to use and reuse materials in the most productive and sustainable way across its entire life cycle. The materials used in a sustainable building minimize life-cycle environmental impacts such as global warming, resource depletion, and human toxicity. Environmentally preferable materials have a reduced effect on human health and the environment and contribute to improved worker safety and health, reduced liabilities, reduced disposal costs, and achievement of environmental goals.Enhance Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ)
The indoor environmental quality (IEQ) of a building has a significant impact on occupant health, comfort, and productivity. Among other attributes, a sustainable building maximizes daylighting, has appropriate ventilation and moisture control, optimizes acoustic performance, and avoids the use of materials with high-VOC emissions. Principles of IEQ also emphasize occupant control over systems such as lighting and temperature.Optimize Operational and Maintenance Practices
Considering a building's operating and maintenance issues during the preliminary design phase of a facility will contribute to improved working environments, higher productivity, reduced energy and resource costs, and prevented system failures. Encourage building operators and maintenance personnel to participate in the design and development phases to ensure optimal operations and maintenance of the building. Designers can specify materials and systems that simplify and reduce maintenance requirements; require less water, energy, and toxic chemicals and cleaners to maintain; and are cost-effective and reduce life-cycle costs. Additionally, design facilities to include meters in order to track the progress of sustainability initiatives, including reductions in energy and water use and waste generation, in the facility and on site.
EPA's New England Regional Laboratory (NERL) achieved a LEED Version 1.0 Gold rating. From conception the project was charged to "make use of the best commercially-available materials and technologies to minimize consumption of energy and resources and maximize use of natural, recycled and non-toxic materials." Chelmsford, MA
Related Issues
Building resiliency is the capacity of a building to continue to function and operate under extreme conditions, such as (but not limited to) extreme temperatures, sea level rise, natural disasters, etc. As the built environment faces the impending effects of global climate change, building owners, designers, and builders can design facilities to optimize building resiliency.
Building adaptability is the capacity of a building to be used for multiple uses and in multiple ways over the life of the building. For example, designing a building with movable walls/partitions allow for different users to change the space. Additionally, using sustainable design allows for a building to adapt to different environments and conditions.

NEWS BRIEFS Community briefing on projects June 17 Mens Lacrosse wins NCAA championship CLICK HERE FOR MORE NEWS BRIEFS
Headlines @ U.Va.
Fiber art by aboriginal women now on display A touring exhibition of baskets and other weavings by Aboriginal women of the central and western deserts of Australia, Manguri Weaving will be on display at the Kluge-Ruhe Art Collection through Aug. 16. In addition, Diane Bell from George Washington University will talk about the artwork June 20 at 7 p.m. at 400 Peter Jefferson Place. To reserve a seat at the lecture, call 244-0234.
The exhibit blends traditional elements, such as the manguri, a circular hair ring used to stabilize a wooden dish carried on the head, with innovative design, especially in baskets incorporating native grasses, seeds, feathers and recently introduced materials like wool. There is even a woven sculpture of a woman making a basket.
The women from the desert regions have long made objects combining fiber and hair-string: hair-string belts, head bands and skirts. They collect materials during trips into the bush.
Basket weaving has emerged as a new art form, with all of the objects on display created since 1995. Unlike wooden bowls, the baskets are not primarily functional. The Manguri Weaving exhibit stresses the contemporary nature of these baskets and their importance in providing income and meaningful employment to Aboriginal women in remote areas.

Breck isn't 20 minutes from Frisco, unless there's gaper traffic. Anyways hop the summit stage into frisco get off at the transit center and walk down to main street. The place thats downstairs that someones referring to is either Jakes dive bar, Ullrs (doubtful), my guess its Downstairs at Erics, good food, not that great a bar, hottest waitresses in town. The places to go to are Cecelia's or Liquid in the La Cima Mall on main street. But its snomies and skanks thats about it. Frisco has backcountry brewery, Po' boys, and that other bar I've never been to but heard it can get out of hand.

Well I hate to sound like a know it all that's lived in Colorado his entire life but yeah, Breck is that far from Frisco when it comes to normal jackass yuppie dipshit traffic. If it wasn't for the 2000 people that didn't know how to drive their BMW SUV's it would be a 3 minute drive, which is also the reason you can sit in line at Breck for 30 minutes or go to Loveland and blast 10 runs in that time. Oh yeah and don't mind the $10 parking where you still have to ride a bus to Breck, it's all worth it when you are in line for EVER to catch a 6 man lift My true honest opinion is if you want to RIDE don't go to Breck, if you like shopping, tourists, and boredom, Breck is your best bet.

Well it depends....if it snows then yeah but my ass is spoiled. It'll be deep pow and at Loveland I get pissed if I have to wait an entire 5 minutes to jump a chair. Breck is just a happening place, when you type COLORADO snowboarding on google it's one of the first places that shows up. It is a good place to drag your family out from florida, but if you are a seasoned rider, I personally wouldn't waste my time there. SHit I live here, and I regret it deeply every time I go there. Abasin, Loveland, even Keytone if you plan on coming here, but....check out Wolf Creek if you are making a vacation of it. Wolf Creek makes Love look BUSY, and sicker terrain, cheaper lodging, more party, etc etc.

I don't think it has better parties by any stretch. It does get a ton more snow and is a lot less crowded for sure. If you stay in Pagosa Springs you should be able to find some fairly happening spots to hang out at night.

i didn't realize pagosa springs was so far away from the other resorts. i think we'll probably stick with the a-base/loveland approach, and probably staying in dillon or silverthorne.
ps, shout out to mr right for an AMAZING round of advice via pm. that dude knows CO like none else. Last edited by berg; 01-29-2008 at 12:38 PM. |

"A gaper is a skiier or snowboarder who is completely clueless. Usually distiungished by their bright colored clothes and a gaper gap, the gap between goggles and a helment/hat. Gapers also do the "Gaper Tuck" which is an attempt at being a ski racer by tucking, however, it is done incorrectly with the poles sticking straight up like thunderbolts and lighting, very very frightning! Gapers also sit at the bottom of jumps and try and go big off table tops in the park." |

Apple TV, iTunes and the App Store are among the products and services named as violating the interactive software pioneer's patents.
A San Jose jury rules against the nonpracticing entity, which had accused Apple of infringing its mobile device technology.
British police have come up with a new way of cutting off funding to websites that illegally share music and movies.
The jury has returned its verdict in this year's big Apple v. Samsung case. Check out what devices were found to violate which patents.
The Cupertino, Calif., company has argued throughout the trial that the case is not about Google and that Samsung copied Apple out of desperation.
The Korean electronics maker now wants about $6.2 million, not $6.8 million, for Apple's accused infringement of two Samsung patents.
After defending itself against claims that it violated Apple's patents for the iPhone, the Korean electronics maker accused its smartphone rival of violating two Samsung patents.
Assuming Samsung infringed Apple's five patents, Apple should receive $1.75 per device in royalties, not the $40 Apple has requested, a Samsung expert argues. Samsung rested its case after the expert testimony.
A federal jury in Texas says that Apple did not infringe on five wireless technology patents in a case filed back in 2012.
Sony, Warner, and Universal argue that under state law, the music streaming service must pay license fees for songs recorded before 1972.

Welcome to the Disaster Center Flood Page
The good people at EarthSat provide a
U S Flood Threat Map which provides a form of prediction of the possibility
of flooding for the next 24 hours. Flooding is the cause of the single largest
form of property damage in the United States, but most property owners policies do not
provide coverage for flooding. To find if out if your community participates in
the National Flood Insurance Program look for your community in the
Community Status Book. When you face a situation like a flood its good
to get advice from people who have gone through it. The folks at the
North Dakota's Cooperative Extension Service have put together one of
the best pages on the Internet for flood related information. FEMA and the
American Red Cross have put together a nine step plan for
Repairing Your Flooded Home.
In situations in which a flood has caused damage to your home, the most
important thing to do is to dry out your property as quickly as
possible. However, if you have a flooded basement
you must not pump out the water quickly. In the case of a flooded
basement water may have damaged the foundation and suddently removing
the water may cause the weight of the water behind the foundation wall
to push the foundation into the basement. In this case empty out no
more than 1/4 of the water per day. When you have time to prepare for a
flood, or if you are in an area which is subject to flooding, there are
some things which can be done to mitigate that future damage.
Contamination by sewerage backing up through the properties sewer line
is a major problem in floods.
In some circumstances FEMA will allow home owners
to flood basements to prevent sewerage from backing into the house. DO NOT
do this unless permission is given! Not all damage resulting from flooding
your basement will be covered, but sewerage contamination is such an insidious
problem that it should be considered. Other ways to prevent sewerage back
up involve plugging sewer / septic lines and installing back flow preventers on the
line. If you live in an area subject to flooding you may consider prepurchasing
sewer plugs or having a backflow preventer installed. FEMA has a
standard form for determining whether a building or mobile home is located
within an identified Special Flood Hazard Area, whether flood insurance is
required, and whether federal flood insurance is available. The Federal Insurance
Administration runs the National
Flood Insurance Program. The program makes flood insurance available
to residents of communities that adopt and enforce flood plain management
ordinances which represent sound land use practices. More than 18,000 communities
participate; and more than 3 million home and business policies are in force.
Find out how the National Flood
Insurance Program works and read about
Some Myths and Facts About the National Flood Insurance Program. Follow
this link for companies participating in the National
Flood Insurance Program's participating Insurance Companies. To File a
Flood Insurance Claim you will need to provide evidence of the damage.
Generally photographic evidence will be sufficient, but you must notify your
insurance agent as soon as possible. The New York District of the Army Corps of Engineers has a
Flood Report Form that you may find useful. Take actions to prevent further damage.
In the case of a flood it is important to remember that the sooner the property
dries the less damage will occur. FEMA's
Flood Mitigation Assistance program provides funding to assist States
and communities in instituting measures to reduce or eliminate the long-term
risk of flood damage. Our states pages have information
specific to your state' government and local emergency management sites and
links to the online newspapers in your state.

Great news - today we launched a feature I've really been looking forward to and that I hope you'll come to love as much as I do. It's called WTF (no, not that: It's "Where's the Fire.")
We've been doing a lot of thinking and planning lately about how we can help to make Technorati more useful to more people. Of course, we're constantly working on improving our core search areas, staying the most comprehensive live web search engine, being the fastest and most responsive engine, pulling out the most spam and splogs so they don't show up in results, and providing you with as much information as possible about the topics you care about.
One of the things that we've found is that as the blogosphere and the Live Web in general has become more and more active, it's increasingly difficult to immediately discern why any given topic is a top search on Technorati. This is especially true when it's a topic that pretty regularly shows up in our top searches (for instance, MySpace or iPhone or Paris Hilton). Folks who use Technorati a lot have consistently shared with us their desire to quickly and efficiently get to the really relevant stuff fast.
That's why our team developed Where's the Fire. When you see a top search with an orange flame next to it, it means at least one person from the community has written their view as to why that topic is hot - right now. The community is also invited to either write their own explanation or vote on the WTFs they view as most helpful. Based on a combination of number of votes and timeliness, the top WTFs by search topic appear on the top of the results page.
But it isn't just for the hottest searches or the stuff with the biggest buzz - in fact, one of the things that I like the most about WTF is that you can write an explanation about any search or topic, and if you get the most votes, your explanation goes in at the top of the results page for that search. You can write a WTF on any topic that someone would search for, and provide information and resources to them about that topic or subject. So, you might want to write a WTF about yourself or your friends names, or your company (or maybe even your competition!)
If you think that you've got a better explanation than the one that shows up on top of Technorati search results for a term, no worries, just go and write your own, and get your friends to vote for it. When you write something great, tell your friends to go and vote for it - for example, please go and vote for my explanation of WTF itself if you think it succinctly tells the story of the feature, and the voting system will take care of the rest.
In many ways, the most valuable real estate a site like ours has is our search pages. So, we're taking a pretty big risk with this. WTF is a big experiment; we're entrusting the most valuable real estate to you - our community - and we think it's going to be a powerful way to make Technorati more useful to you.
So check it out and give it a try. And, as always, please share your thoughts and ideas with me - we really want this to be a useful and engaging new service for all those who use Technorati.

Local execs slam survey showing Maguindanao population is smaller than claimed
COTABATO CITY, Philippines—Local executives are up in arms against the results of a revalidation survey conducted by the National Statistics Office that shows the province has less people than what its officials had previously reported.
In 2007, NSO records showed that the province had a population of 1,273,715 but the revalidation survey conducted in the middle of 2010 showed that Maguindanao has a population of only 944,718 or a difference of 328,997.
Razulden Mangelen, Maguindanao NSO chief, said it took them almost two years to make the census result public because they wanted to make sure it was accurate.
Mangelen admitted that the revalidation was a sensitive issues and that local executives would not be happy over it as it would reduce their share of the national government's tax collections.
"We were also surprised," he said.
Shariff Aguak, the turf of former Maguindanao governor Andal Ampatuan Sr., was among the towns that saw a marked decrease in population figures after the revalidation. From its 2007 population of 70,340, the town now has an official population of only 35,964 or a decrease of 34,376 as a result of the 2010 revalidation.
Parang town, which had a population of 102,247 in 2007, now has 73,247 inhabitants.
An official of the NSO regional office for the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, who asked for anonymity, said the 2007 figure might have been accurate because of inward migration. But then, he added, the population figures may have been deliberately manipulated.
"There could be other reasons, like increasing the population to also increase the Internal revenue Allotment (IRA) and for election purposes," the official said in defending his manipulation theory.
Mayor Tocao Mastura of Sultan Kudarat town, which now has a smaller population, said the new NSO data would greatly affect public service.
Maguindanao Governor Esmael Mangudadatu admitted with the reduced population, Maguindanao's monthly IRA of P80 million would likely be reduced by as much as P30 million per month.
He said the revalidation results were justified because in the towns of Datu Hofer and Datu Unsay, both of which were created under the Ampatuan administration, the population was indeed bloated.
But Mangudadatu said he wanted the NSO to conduct a revalidation of its 2010 data because towns where the population was known to be increasing were shown to also have smaller populations.
"I want clarifications why some areas we know of to be really populated had decreased population in the 2010 census," he said.
He cited as example Parang town, whose population had sharply decreased to 73,247 in 2010 from the 2007 figure of 102,247.
Commando Pilimpinas, NSO ARMM director, said the 2010 census has not yet been signed by President Aquino and is not "officially official yet."
But he said he doubted if Aquino would grant the request of Maguindanao executives for another revalidation.

Sazi Unregistered guest | My ipod has got stuck in ipod diagnostics and I have no idea how to get it out...this is really annopying...i've tried connceting it to my computer but itunes isnt even aware the ipod is there while it is diagnostics mode... Does anyone know how to get out of it? |
CyberDevil Unregistered guest | Select "B. Reset" U MORON !!!! |
Bastige Unregistered guest | That was uncalled for. |
guest11 Unregistered guest | not only was it uncalled for, but it dosnt fully answer the question. I have a 5th gen ipod, video ipod, stuck on the accessorize test section of test diagnostics mode. it displays 3 lines: please plug fw lcd id:1 fwpwr: 0 i dont even know how i got into diagnostics mode the thing was just in my pocket for like 10 mins without hold on |
aftrbrnr Unregistered guest | Ditto here on the problem with "accessorize test" problem on my 5G. It occured when I slipped it into the pouch without putting it 'on hold'. Anyone find a cure yet?? |
Unregistered guest | I had the same problem as 'guest 11' , except that my screen said lcd id:2 I put my iPod in my bag (after charging it and downloading all my iTunes so I could take it with me to the beach this weekend). When I turned it on the 'Accessorize diagnostics' (what language is it speaking?? - Accessorize???) came up and no matter what I tried I couldn't get out of this screen. My solution was to leave it turned on until the battery went flat and it seemed to turn itself off. I have now returned home and plugged it into my iMac G5 (10 minutes ago) - the colour screen with 'Do not disconnect' and the flashing icon is showing and the battery icon shows that it is charging - I have yet to hear one track played on my iPod. If it doesn't work tomorrow morning when I get up I'm taking it back to my Apple reseller to see what explanation/excuse I get. Cheers Tricia |
Molli Unregistered guest | I had the same problem, and I just found the solution on another site...hold down "Select" and "Menu" until the screen goes black and it should reboot itself. |

A region near the river Avon, famous for its red sandstone cliffs, was called Redcliffe when this area became part of Bristol. This part of the river is called Floating Harbour. The name of Redcliffe Caves is derived from the name of the quarter.
The sandstone is soft enough, to allow the construction of cellars, but hard enough to be stable. So during several centuries numerous cellars, dungeons and subterranean storage rooms were built. The quarried sandstone was used to manufacture cheap dark green bottles and to make a slip for glazing pottery.
The owner of the Redcliffe Caves is the City Council, and there are no regular open hours despite the Bristol Doors Open Day. But in the last years, the Axbridge Caving Group (ACG) started to explore the caves an to make tours by special appointment. The times of the hurricane lamps - as described by Tony Oldham in 1972 (see below) - are over, everybody has to bring his own light!

This program combines the Master of Arts in Bioethics with the Master of Public Health degree. The Master of Public Health Program prepares students to address the broad mission of public health, defined as "enhancing health in human populations, through organized community effort," utilizing education, research, and community service. Public health practitioners must be prepared to identify and assess health needs of different populations, and able to plan, implement and evaluate programs to respond to those needs. It is the task of the public health practitioner to prevent illness, and to protect and promote the wellness of human-kind. A Master of Public Health degree provides education in public health basics, including biostatistics, epidemiology, environmental health sciences, health policy and social and behavioral sciences.
The Department of Bioethics offers a graduate program leading to the degree of Master of Arts in Bioethics. Advances in health sciences have created new and difficult moral choices for individuals, their families, and the health professionals who work with them. The Department of Bioethics is dedicated to responding to the challenge of health care choices faced in today's society. Professionals from many arenas, including public health, prevention sciences, health sciences, the life sciences, and the social sciences have contributed to and drawn from the field of bioethics.
Because of the breadth and scope of the field of public health and the discipline of bioethics, the Case MPH and Bioethics Programs are ideally suited to combine in a joint effort. The MPH/Bioethics shared degree will enable students to obtain graduate preparation in both fields, contributing to the application of ethics in public health practice and thereby increasing the availability of leadership and scholarship relating to Bioethics in the public health community. It is anticipated that this collaboration will improve the ethics component of the public health educational experience for all students through closer collaboration between departments, and through peer interactions of dual degree students and their colleagues.
The MPH Degree is a "terminal" degree and persons with the degree may pursue a variety of career paths. The MA in bioethics is considered a supplementary degree in that it enhances careers in other fields, e.g. law, medicine, nursing, or in this case, public health. The joint bioethics-public health degree would fuel careers in every aspect of public health, including international and global health, public health preparedness and function, environmental health sciences, behavioral sciences, health education, health communications and health policy and management.
Bioethics Masters students receive their degree after 27 hours of study over one year. The School of Graduate Studies awards the MPH degree for 36 credit hours over two years. The joint MA/MPH program can be completed in three years of full-time study to complete a minimum of 57 credit hours. It should be noted that in 2007, changes in national education criteria for the Master of Public Health degree will require increasing credit hour requirements to 42 credits. Options will be available for part-time pursuit of the degree within five years, or for an accelerated plan competed in five semesters. Students will develop individual education plans (IEP) with their advisors and may customize their approach and pace through the program. Each program has a set of core courses that must be completed; 15 core credits in Public Health and 15 core credits in Bioethics for a combined total of 30 required credit hours. The 9-credit Capstone experience is also required of all public health students. The stand-alone Bioethics program also requires 12 credits taken from a list of approved elective courses. In addition to its 24 required credits, the stand-alone MPH program requires 9 concentration credits and 3 elective credits. Joint MA/MPH candidates will combine their Bioethics electives and Public Health concentration and elective courses to complete a total of 18 credit hours of advanced electives.

Cheesy Nori Snacks
These are tasty snacks modeled after a raw treat I picked up at our local co-op. A great idea for using up the rest of your sunflower pate after making raw lasagna.
1 nori sheet
3 tablespoon sunflower pate (or any other nut cheese spread)
sprinkle black sesame seeds (optional)
- Spread sunflower pate on a nori sheet.
- Optional: sprinkle some kind of flavorful addition on top, like black sesame seeds.
- Either place in dehydrator as it or roll up.
- Dehydrate at 115 For about 6 or 7 hours (until fairly dry). Add an hour or so for roll-ups.
Store in refrigerator.
8 reponses to "Cheesy Nori Snacks"
1. Oh my goodness, these are
Oh my goodness, these are great!! I made two nori sheets worth and they ended up needing 5 tablespoons of the pate on each sheet. I must have chunky pate or something :)
Making two sheets was not enough. They really, really shrink up in the dehydrator - down to nearly half their original size. I ate a quarter of the batch just testing to see if they were done. Next time I would make several sheets because they are so addictive!!!
2. Here is the new link for the
Here is the new link for the sunflower pate:
The links in some of the older recipes are broken, so you may have to 'search' for them:)
3. these look so good! but i
these look so good! but i can't get the sunflower pate link to work? does anyone have any suggestions for a good alternative?
4. these are sooo good ! I
these are sooo good !
I actually made them into sort of nori sandwiches, because I love nori so much :)
I ate the whole batch !
Yum, those look awesome. Do you think they'd still be good without dehydrating?
i made something very similar to these before i went on a weekend long yoga excursion in toledo, ohio [i'm from wisconsin..] and they were SOOO good. they packed great, lasted a good amount of time considering i made them ahead of time.. and wow. they just taste so fabulous! I'll be making these again soon!!!

L'Oreal Magic Skin Beautifer BB Cream aka L'Oreal Nude Magique BB Cream Launches in the US
L'Oreal Nude Magique BB Cream displays have been spotted by yours truly at Harmons and CVS. Unlike the UK they have four shade selections total to choose from and it's newly named L'Oreal Magic Skin Beautifer BB Cream.
It's $8.29 on Harmons and CVS it was $10.79.
6/21/12 13:37 Rachel:
You"re review of this was great. I have stayed away from this and purchased the Maybelline BB. However, the Youth Code BB I am very curious about
6/21/12 13:48 the Muse:
how are you liking the maybelline one rachel? it's not really a bb cream formula but it is rather nice as a TM ;-D youth code has a bb? I didn't even know about that.
6/21/12 13:38 Stephanie C.:
Hoping it's good! Their luminous primer is already pretty good for face coverage
6/21/12 14:21 Rachel:
Im liking the Maybelline BB but, youre right, as a TM. I have pretty even skin so its just enough for me. I wouldnt recommend it people with acne or dark spots.I really, really love the Biore Watery essence. Definitely going to check out the watery mousse.
6/21/12 14:22 the Muse:
they ahve a new whitening watery mousse spf! I'll be reviewing it soonish ;-D I like the gel texture of the maybelline, it does really refine skin but bb cream is a little over marketed for it lol!
6/21/12 14:23 the Muse:
ps thanks for the heads up on youth code just purchased it on drugstore.com
6/21/12 15:46 HapaGirl:
Just picked up the Youth Code BB cream – it's allllright. Not as bad as the Garnier one, but it's pretty similar. Similar texture, pigmentation, and scent, but with broad spectrum UVA/UVB coverage (only SPF 15 though). The shade (light) is a bit orangey, but it's not horrible. It might be ok for summer. Hope you enjoy it! Looking forward to the review!
6/21/12 15:58 the Muse:
hapa sounds disappointing girl not sure I should bother?! orange?! ack!
6/21/12 20:32 HapaGirl:
I dunno, girl – my skin has yellowish undertones so it pulled a bit orange on me, but I think your skin is more on the neutral side so it may not look half bad. Let me know what you think when you pick it up!
6/21/12 15:21 Sarah:
I feel like I failed. I purchased this, even after reading your review of the UK version. I didn't know it was the same thing I read. It was a spontaneous purchase. The L'Oreal one is gritty and I'm not sure what exactly it does to my skin. I don't see a difference. I got it in Fair. It doesn't say anything about SPF on it. I feel like I should go back at find the Maybelline one. I'm wearing Covergirl Natureluxe on top. I think it looks ok.
6/21/12 15:22 the Muse:
same formula sarah :-/ sorry about that, I'd return it chica, get something else.
6/21/12 17:54 Jennie:
I wonder how different the formula is. I've seen that the UK one has some SPF and this one doesn't.
6/23/12 23:34 Rebecca:
I bought this on a whim, and I have some very conflicting thoughts about it. MAJOR negative points for not having SPF, but I actually enjoyed the grittiness of it because it was almost exfoliating in a way. I thought my skin felt softer after using it. But I do have some redness on my skin, which I felt it covered nicely without being too heavy.
By the way, I LOVE LOVE LOVE your site. Absolutely adore you! Thank you for all you do
6/25/12 12:28 the Muse:
hey rebecca! agreed, the lack of spf is unforgivable aw thank you! <3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! your comment totally made my day hugs!
7/27/12 12:32 Uzilolita:
I actually dont mind this formula as much as most. Its def not a BB cream but its nice to put on on a day that you dont want to put very much makeup. I prefer the Maybelline BB cream more even though that too is not a BB cream. The loreal one stays on my face more so then the maybelline one. Hopefully these brands will do some more research on what a BB cream is actually. LOVE YOU MUSE!
7/27/12 14:15 the Muse:
love you back uzilolita <3! Glad you liked it and agree, they def need to research ;D!
8/8/12 11:03 Kim:
Way too gritty, more like an exfoliating cream. Disappointing.

US Mayors-Racism
4:46 pm
Thu September 12, 2013
US Conference Of Mayors Releasing Anti-Racism Plan
The national group of mayors is proposing a 10-point plan to end racism and discrimination in America.
The blueprint released Thursday by the U.S. Conference of Mayors includes speaking out against bias, reducing poverty and working to reduce disparities between whites, blacks and Hispanics in prison sentencing.
In cities, the mayors say want to promote inclusion and tolerance and help integrate immigrants into communities.
The organization is unveiling the plan in Alabama at Birmingham's 16th Street Baptist Church, where a racist bombing killed four girls 50 years ago this week.
The mayor's association is establishing the U.S. Coalition of Cities Against Racism and Discrimination as part of the International Coalition of Cities Against Racism.
The mayors are working with the United Nations on the plan.

questions about going from 55 to 240+ I had to beg, and plead for a 55 gallon tank. I grew up with a fish tank and I always wanted one in our house. Well we finally got our "own place" and we could have one. After much begging I got a 55 gallon tank (he wanted to get a 29) for my birthday back in April. Well I set it up, got it cycled, and he has picked just about every fish out that is in there (I love the choices that he has made, he always asks me, "will this work in our tank?"). I do all the cleaning to the tank though. Not a big deal I get it done "my way". Now he is talking about wanting to get at least a 240 gallon. YES I had to beg him for a 55 gallon just a little over three months ago. LOL He is wanting to turn our 55 into a saltwater and get the 240 for a tropical community tank. My question is how much MORE work (other than taking a little longer for cleaning) am I looking at with a 240 than I already put into a 55. I do weekly water changes/vac. the whole nine yards that goes into keeping a nice tank and fish alive and healthy. |
Good for him. :welldone: You folks must decide on what type of community tank you wish. African cichlids would be a good choice as they have diverse color. The tank would be similar to a salt tank in that there should be rockwork galore for the fish. A true community tank would be impressive with plants, wood,rocks, and fish such as tetras, danios, dwarf South American cichlids and catfish like cories, farowellas, and dwarf bagrids. If you have the opportunity pick up some magazines, Tropical Fish Hobbiest is a real good one, and do some research. You have joined the forum and that is a good thing. Check out some the other members' tanks for a few ideas. I almost forgot......Welcome to the forum. :demented: |
If you are interested in a tank that large you dont only have to do a small fish community tank you can do a larger community say with silver dollars, tinfoil barbs brown or black ghost knifes the possibilities depend on what you want in the tank. If you like the smaller fish then you can make a spectacular tank with them or you can go bigger. the choice is up to you. |
Bichirs>knife fish :mrgreen: :wink2: |
If I had a 240, I'd think long and hard about an Arowana or 3. |
I have seen them setup BEAUTIFULLY with a silver arow, a clown knife, 6 silver dollars, 2 (but i would go with at least 4) bala sharks, a chanel cat, and a another catfish (not sure what kind?) :?: |
Thanks for the input guys. My main question is how much more time and I going to have to put into it? Is it harder to keep a 240+ than it is to keep a 55 or is it about the same as far as keeping water in check goes? I have heard bigger is easier, it is true? 55 has been pretty easy for us. |
It really depends on what you do. If you just have fish rocks wood then it wont be any different and maybe even less than you do now. But you will spend a lot more on the filtration and every other aspect of the set up. If you go from just fish to a planted 240 then you will have a lot more work. 3 arowanas in a 240... bit small for a single silver. |

Little Darlings
Two of the cutest little primroses that we grow are Primula yuparensis (top) and Primula rosea (bottom). The former is native to the mountains of Japan, the latter to the Himalayas, so needless to say they like cool, moist, but well drained spots... a short commodity in the broiling, often drought-parched summers of Iowa. I don't do much watering in the garden, relying on good soil, lots of mulch, shade from the trees, and the strong desire of plants to somehow survive. These two little gems are an exception; if ever they dry out, they are G-O-N-E. Fortunately each of the plants is small enough to fit under a teacup... and a teacup is just how much water they need.

Jansen, E Pieter, Merchant, Kenneth A and Van der Stede, Wim (2009) National differences in incentive compensation practices: the differing roles of financial performance measurement in the United States and the Netherlands. Accounting, Organizations and Society, 34 (1). pp. 58-84. ISSN 0361-3682
Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
This paper describes the findings of a study aimed at providing an international replication of a US-based study by Gibbs et al. [Gibbs, M., Merchant, K., Van der Stede, W., & Vargus, M. (2004). Determinants and effects of subjectivity in incentives. The Accounting Review, 79(2), 409–436; Gibbs, M., Merchant, K., Van der Stede, W., & Vargus, M. (2006). The structure of incentive contracts: Evidence from auto dealerships. Working Paper, University of Chicago, University of Southern California, London School of Economics and University of Texas-Dallas] focused on the incentive compensation practices of firms in the automobile retailing industry. The purpose was to determine the extent to which these practices and their effects were similar across countries. Theory provides conflicting predictions as to whether international practices should reflect a situational "best fit" or "global best practices." We collected a dataset comparable to that of Gibbs et al. from Dutch automobile retailers. The findings reveal dramatic differences in practices across the two countries. As compared to the US firms, the Dutch firms are much less likely to provide their managers with incentive compensation in any form. Where Dutch firms do offer incentive compensation, the payouts are smaller and their bonus awards are less likely to be based on profit measures of performance. But where the Dutch firms use incentive compensation, their performance/reward functions are more complex. Moreover, unlike in the US firms, in the Dutch firms the effects of the use of incentive compensation on net profit and pay satisfaction are negative.
